I Am So Tired Of Being Alone.

This may sound silly, but I am so tired of being alone. I feel like I have no one. I was always a quiet person but it's never been like this before. A couple of years ago I got so sick to the point where i almost died. After my experience I knew that it was only God who kept me on Earth with my friends and family. Ever since then I have given my life to God. I have nothing in common with my friends anymore. they continue to get drunk, have sex, and use profanity constantly. On the other hand I still have a few of my old characteristics inside of me, although I don't use profanity, a word or 2 may slip out occasionally. I may have one light drink occasionally, and I refuse to have sex again until I am married. I am still at the point where I don't want to be"overly religious",if that makes since, but i feel like I am stuck. I was forced to break up with my boyfriend because we became incompatible with each other. I am unable to work or go to school right now due to my condition and I now have no form of transportation, So I cannot meet new people. i am stuck in the house all day long. I am unable to talk to any of my friends or family because they don't understand. I guess i felt like this site would be a good outlet to let out my frustrations anonymously. I guess I am just looking for someone like me who can relate. Either male or female. Someone to talk to and maybe even down the line hang out sometime. I am a Kind person and easy to get along with.. Thank you for taking the time to read a little bit of my story.

Try living a life and now in your sixties and still ALONE even though you are good looking, intelligent, interesting, free-thinker, no hefty negative traits ( i.e. jealousy, anger, evil, etc. ) and easy-going, still no intimate long lasting relationship. This is not fun and certainly unhealthy.

Wow as I read your story it was as if i was writing it, I have also done the same thing I have given myself to god and made a promise that I would not have an intimate relationship with a female until I get married and that was eight months ago, at times I feel like I am going crazy and at times I feel like I am always alone, and need to be with someone. Please don't give up and stick to your guns we can do this and always remember you are not alone. Ruben

Thought of some thing.<br />Go and get a cat or a dog.<br />They need some one.<br />And you need some one.<br />Then you can tell them in thing and they will <br />not tell in one.<br />Then you have some one to be with you .<br /><br />I am looking for a small dog.<br />I live alone and then good luck

Thank you again everyone for taking time to read my story. I can't believe it's been a little over a year sice I orginally wrote this, and I have to admit, I have grown and have learn SO nuch, I don't feel nearly as alone as I used to. I know that a lot of people reading this wouldn't consider theselves religious, (I used to be one of them) But when I completly surrendered to God, I had the most incredible sense of peace and happiness. I haven't had a day when I have felt alone because God is always there, and on top on that He is constantlt providing and putting people in my path to speak with and laugh with. I have just reunited with a handful of my closest frieds and I have the courage now to speak with my family and they really do understand. they don't judge me at all. they embrace me. I feel so loved. Although I still not able to drive, God has bless ne with the opportunity to be able to do so again soon. And I am so extremly grateful that I was pulled away rom my previous relationsip because I realize now that it was not healthly for me. I was cheated on, lied to, and very little time was spent together. I will not go into detail but I know that God has created a special man to love me and treat me the way I am supposed to be treated. So if you asked me now am I upset because I am still single? No. I don't have time for a man now. I have to focus on geting my life back together. I am using the blessing that God has given me. and when He is ready He will send me the man that I am supposed to be with and we wil be together for the rest of our lifes as long as we put god first. I appreciate everyone's advice.. I hope that other people who have commented weresble to use something that someone else may have said. Thank you and God bless. Remember, you are never alone when you trust in the Lord. <br />He will always be there beside you and he will put people in your life to be with who you can relate to. For those of you who are not quite ready for that just yet, (which I completly understand) Try seeing a conselor, going to support groups, or asking a local chuch for guidance. They will not pressure you if it is a healthy chruch, they will only guiide you, and recommend places for you to go. You can research things that you arer interested in and see if they have discusssions or gatherings. Y You can google some ideas, hey, you can even try only dating sites. if im nt miistasken i believe i came across a site stictly for making new friends a while back. but most imortantly, do NOT give up hope. This to shall pass. God put every single last one of us on here for a reason, and we will make s difference somewhere, somehow. Talk to Him, even if it sounds silly, give it a try, You don't have to be embarrassed and you dont have to use a bunch of big fancy words. just as long as its from your heart He will hear you.<br />God bless!

I have depression since about the age of 10. I am 59 now and struggle daily. Those of us who have this illness are the only ones capable being sincere when we say, "I know how you feel." Some thoughts that have helped me: When I feel suicidal, at least in the planning stages, like a matra, I tell myself that it's the depression taking over and just b/c I think it doesn't make it true. 2.) I have had 4 minor surgeries during the past year-outpatient treatment. The last one was on my thumb, the tendon was shredded by the plate inserted to set the broken bone. What I tell myself now is that the doctor who fixed my thumb and that the PT who teaches me how to use the tendon, are very concerned that my THUMB gets better. Imagine. It's not life threatening at all and I could adjust without it. But these professionals do their best work TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF MY LIFE. Why? They don't know me. I think of that and I can concentrate on reading again. I'm not jumping up and down-just calmer. 3.) I am so tired of being alone, too. I live in my mind, not always my friend. My trip to a store is the highlight. I am married and have 2 grown boys. But going to parties, having parties, just going out with friends has not happened at all for me. So--should I l"Look Back in Anger,' or should I accept who I am--basically a loner who may push people away. 4.) I love teaching but I had to leave--no need for details. It's been like a sudden death in the family. By making me retire, the admin stole my soul. It's 11/2 years, and I still I am mourning. I will get through this. That's the promise I made to myself. What gets to me a lot is<"Where are my friends who continue to teach?" I've never learned the diff between friend and colleague. Weddings, Baptisms, Christmas parties all occur without me. <br /><br />there is no magic pill. there is no magic treatment. there is no spa. there are you, doctors, clinics, medicines and hope. Hope? because even as men and women entered the gas chambers, many prayed as they knew the would be murdered. Without hope in ourselves, rejection cripples us. We stay in bed watching reruns of CSI. <br /><br />One final note for now---read funny stories. No one should go a day w/o laughing. Read David Sedaris or the Diary of a Wimpy Kid or watch a Marx Bros. movie or Scary Movie. The goal is a respite. Then you may be stronger when the darkness descends.<br /><br />I am writing this for both you and me---NEVERNEVERNEVER GIVEGIVEGIVE UPUPUP ONONON YOURSELFYOURSELFYOURSELF.---NO ONE WILL BE BETTER B/C OF A SUICIDE. <br />Bye for now...

Hi, I can understand your feelings very well because I too have that feeling of being alone. Alone in a crowd, that is something serious(for me). I have a little creative activities like writing, singing etc and that is how I fight loneliness. I am much fond of people feeling alone and would be very happy to stand near them, listening to what they have to say.

hi. thanks for sharing your story.<br />im not very religious but i also feel like i don't have much in common with the people around me. currently im also stuck with the same people all the time because i singed a contract that binds me for the next year and a half to the same place. <br />there are tow things i can say - <br />1. im going to be checking this site more often.. i really want to talk to more people that feel like me, so if your bored i'd love to talk to you more.<br />2. i realized that i cant change who i am, i cant change the people around me, but i can go to places where there is more potential for me to find people who at least share my interests. so if there's something you love doing - dancing /singing / painting... try going to a place where people do that.

Hi. Near death experiences can change people dramatically just be sure that it isn't a temporary change before you decide to get rid of friends or your boyfriend. I don't know what else to tell you. Good Luck.

All my life I've had to pick myself up when I felt completely shattered. People who were supposed to be there for me used me. All I want is to not feel alone all the time. I want someone not anyone in particular just one voice to make me understand why all this suffering was...

Same ol' story...I did what I was supposed to make the right life with the wrong guy. Twenty years later I am alone. I so want to move on. I did the therapy work. I don't think about him or ever want to go back. I have found hobbies and worked on myself. It's not enough. Surely...
